This mask is well made and lightweight, the fit is good and the strap adjusting points make this simple to adjust whilst wearing the mask. The low profile (non replaceable) filters keep the mask well balanced and do not restrict vision or movement which is more comfortable for extended use. When purchasing be sure to check the mask data sheets to ensure the protection offered by the filters is that required by the task, similar looking masks are not all the same, this mask should be suitable for most common non specialist situations. A well designed product which I will replace at the end of its life with the same type.

Used for breathing protection while spraying epoxy primer and cellulose paint in a domestic garage. Mask is very effective with no smell of solvent coming through (even with significant amounts of overspray). Now used for a number of hours with no break though. Seal is good and mask is relatively comfortable to wear, and the straps are easy to adjust and lock. The mask easy to take on and off, and has a fairly low profile, although the vent did snag when wearing it under a face visor. Overall appears better in all respects to be a better product than a cartridge respirator bought at the same time.

I have always used 3M respirators for spray painting, filler work and rubbing down old paintwork and they have kept out all vapours and dust. The tell tale sign that a replacement is due is when smells start to come through whilst wearing it. Nowadays I always use the 3M overspray guards that fit over the particulate filters to make them last longer. The respirator fits well once the straps have been adjusted correctly, and I cover the valve on the front with my hand and blow outwards to ensure that there is an airtight seal. Overall, an excellent product at a bargain price to keep your lungs safe. Recommended!

I have been spraying motorbikes with cans at home for years. After using really cheap masks, this is a revelation. I can breath now without wheezing! It makes an excellent seal around the mouth and nose. Truly recommended.
